  • Patent number: 8848465
    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device is provided, which includes a memory core including a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells, a first read circuit that reads a first codeword from the memory core during a Read While Write (RWW) operation, a second read circuit that reads a second codeword from the memory core during a Read Modification Write (RMW) operation, and a common decoder that is shared by the first read circuit and the second read circuit and selectively decodes the first codeword or the second codeword.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8661317
    Abstract: A memory device using error correcting code and a system including the same are provided. The memory system includes a memory device, and a storage block connected to the memory device. The memory device includes a normal cell region including a first plurality of memory cells for storing data bits, and an error correcting code (ECC) cell region including a second plurality of memory cells for storing first through mth sets of ECC bits. The storage block includes a third plurality of memory cells for storing first through nth sets of the ECC bits. Each memory cell of the first and second plurality of memory cells is a first type of memory cell and each memory cell of the third plurality of memory cells is a second type of memory cell different from the first type of memory cell.

  • Patent number: 8576644
    Abstract: A memory device using error correcting code and a system including the same are provided. The memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of bit lines and a plurality of memory cells; an access block for accessing the memory cell array; and a controller block for receiving a first operation command signal, dividing the first operation command signal into at least two paths pulse signals corresponding to at least two paths, based on a pre-determined criterion, and then supplying the at least two path pulse signals to the access block. The access block operates based on an output signal of the controller block.
